I'm grateful and humbled to be among the recipients of this great scholarship. This award has made it possible for me to be one step closer to achieving my dreams and I am thankful for the opportunity.

Use of the center is free unless you charge a fee for your event or program. If you charge community members to participate in your program, we ask you to make a donation to the center to fund free programming.

The CEC space uses an open floor plan and has open computer lab hours during the week. This means groups may hear each other and participants will have to move through your space to get to other parts of the CEC. Most CEC users are professional and respectful; however, if your event or program needs complete quiet and confidentiality, the CEC is not a good fit for you.

The CEC staff will arrange the space to your specifications given the equipment available at the center. If your event requires outside equipment (extra tables, chairs, arches, bulletin boards, etc.), your organization will be responsible for all setup. Your organization is responsible for cleanup.

Getting Here

The CEC is located at the base of the BioPark Garage at 1 N. Poppleton St. Our front door is at 870 W. Baltimore St.

Parking

Parking in the BioPark Garage is available to visitors for a fee. The CEC is unable to validate parking for visitors, but there is typically ample street parking available within two blocks of the space. Parking on West Baltimore Street is metered. Parking on West Fayette, Poppleton, and Hollins streets is free.
